All people know is that society crumbled after the arrival of "The Corruption". Recently, however, various pockets of civilizations have appeared and technology in those societies is on the rebound.Outside the protection of these insular cities roam called Chimeras- monstrous creatures resulting the Corruption's arrival- who prey on anyone who has the gall to live outside protected walls.
